Traditional global plastic waste management mainly relies on landfilling, incineration, and recycling.
Landfilling causes long-term soil and groundwater pollution as plastic takes 20 to 450 years to decompose.
Incineration releases toxic dioxins and CO₂ that worsen global warming.
Recycling, though eco-friendly, has a global rate below 10% and cannot handle multi-layered or contaminated plastics.
In contrast, plastic-to-oil conversion,pyrolysis plant, an emerging technology using pyrolysis (heating plastic to 400–600°C in an oxygen-free environment), turns 90% of non-recyclable plastic into usable fuel (gasoline, diesel, etc.), avoiding long-term waste storage and reducing toxic emissions compared to traditional methods. While traditional methods are familiar, they fail to solve the non-recyclable plastic issue, so a balanced approach combining better recycling and scaled-up plastic-to-oil pyrolysis plant projects is the most effective strategy for the plastic waste crisis.
1. Raw Material for pyrolysis plant and oil yield
Raw Material | Oil Yield | For example |
Waste tire | 40-45% | Steel tire, canvas tire, etc. the engineering tire is large in size and needs to be cut, broken and then cracked |
Waste rubber | 35% | Such as rubber cable leather, rubber sole, conveyor belt, rubber track, etc. |
Waste chemical fiber carpet | 30% | |
PMMA | 80-85% | Plexiglass, acrylic, etc |
PE material | 95% | Industrial packaging film, pharmaceutical and food packaging film, daily necessities, building materials, wires, cable insulation skin, etc |
PP material | 90% | Woven bags, packing bags, injection products such as food utensils, basins, barrels, bottle caps, car bumpers, etc |
PS material | 90% | CD, CD case, tape case, foam product, home appliance shell, etc. |
ABS engineering plastics | 40% | |
Note: 1. PVC and PET materials are not easy to refine 2. The oil delivery rate of big car tire is slightly higher than that of small car tire 3. The oil yield of the materials listed above are all laboratory data, and the raw materials are dry, clean and free of other inorganic materials (water content, inorganic impurity content are not more than 5%) test data. | ||

4. Strength of Lefilter waste plastic recycling plant pyrolysis plant
A. We can supply hydraulic feeding system,which can shorten the feeding time,save labor,reduce costs,improve production efficiency.With power strength 80 ton and 15 kw motor ,it's competitive than other factories.
B. No leaking and safe with special high temperature flexible graphite packing.
C. Fully enclosed carbon black discharging system. Automatic discharging by the reactor move forward or back-forward.No pollution caused by carbon black and will not flying out when discharging.
D.Good quality on raw material: Reactor material is Q345R,which is used for furnace professionally,it has better performance under high temperature working environment than Q245R others used. Reactor shell is Q235B material,and filled with refractory matters that can keep hot during the heating in good efficiency as well as the direct heating system to save energy and cost.
E.Our pyrolysis plant is equipped with anti-explosion device,safety valves,emergency valves,pressure and temperature meters,as well as the alarming system to avoid emergency happens.
F. Environmental-friendly.
a:Emission Standard:Adopting special gas scrubbers to remove acid gas and dust from smoke .
b:Smell during operation:Fully enclosed during the operation
c:Water pollution:No pollution at all. All water are recycling used,after making the oil cool,then flow into water pool then reused.
d:Air pollution:no air pollution,the waste gas can be discharged into flue gas pool,it's closed.
e:Solid pollution:No solid pollution.All the solid after pyrolysis is the crude carbon black and steel wires which can be deep-processed or sold directly with its value.
G.Box condenser is produced with 8 pcs 133mm tubes and 17 pcs 108 tubes,25 tubes totally can guarantee the high yield and not easily blocked .The length of oil gas will be arround 180m in the tubes and have enough time to cooling down the oil gas to oil.
